Tobiz✭✭✭Good job!Attention Zenimax: Stamina builds don't hold up to magicka builds, and this is causing most of your class imbalance. It makes melee weapons and bows weaker than staves and class abilities. It makes medium and heavy armor less desirable than light armor. Fix this imbalance, and you'll address most of your balance issues.1 -

dokupe✭✭✭@Zameri Nice to see that you're bringing back and updating the old beta guide. I still want my Arkay back though...
@ZOS_JessicaFolsom Any chance those tester roles will find relevance enough to bring them back in some fashion? That or someone ought to make a guild for Arkay at least~Edited by dokupe on 31 March 2014 04:09Future Gadget Lab is recruiting adventurers like yourself for endgame PvE content!

dokupe✭✭✭@Dokupe although im not quite ready to get my guild off the ground you can join it and start recruiting. I have a raid call set up and am working on the website now.
@Zameri Oh, you're making one already? For Arkay's testers or just including them? I got my guild name yesterday luckily, but I can't create any others now. Send me an invite though.

✭I would like to inform everyone that my guide has been made and is up under player guides and is called "Zams Guide To Everything ESO" And provides TONS of great information for all players!Arkay Beta Tester0 -
Locutius✭I would really have liked to see a lot more help with character creation. Each step explained. I don't know if I have selected an alliance or not. No hints of which alliance choice means what. Races needed a more enhanced description. Everything should have been at hand to make the best choice as possible. Was all just a bit obscure. What is really needed is a strategy guide even though I understand this is an evolving game, it would have been a great help.
So far I have played about 3 hours and wondering if I have made a decent choice or start again - which I definitely don't want to do.
Guys, I love your work and have been a dedicated fan since Morrowind but delivering us into this epic title could have been done much better especially considering the amount of money people will spend buying and subscribing to this game.1 -
Grouchie✭I just wish we had the opportunity to choose between this 1st person interface and the more traditional MMO 3rd person interface like we have in Rift, WoW, Everquest. The 1st person shooter style is great for running around and shooting people in the face, but for an MMO of this era it just doesn't work

the scroll wheel on the mouse will allow you to move in and out of first person and adjust how far back from your avatar you can be. There is also a "key bind" to toggle in and out of first person mode also. I'm blanking on which button at the moment but a quick glance at the control settings should tell you.0 -

Killum✭✭✭Nice guide but I couldn't find anything on 'Collectable' or 'Trophy' items.
Did I miss something? If not could you add some info on these.0 -
